Carrying it with pride

i am getting a bit bigger.

and my feet are a bit further away.

and the steering wheel is a whole lot closer.

but it all makes me proud
when i think of what i'm growing.
what we've created.

there's a lot to be said
for this waiting
and the anticipation of finding out who you are
and who you'll be.

the midwives say that you are comfy
and not in a hurry quite yet.
so i will try to relax
and enjoy this feeling of y.o.u.

i will put my feet up
and nap
and feel your kicks and hiccups.
and try to soak it all in

while it lasts.
